Is chitchat time over yet? We kind of have an entire plane of existence to save, here.
Hadley:
Is that so?
Maybe after we grab this Stone, you and I can team up on something else.
You:
Yeah, let’s grab drinks with the whole gang!
Yes, professionally speaking, we make a great team.
I’d really like that. (Kiss)
I think I’ll pass on that, but thanks anyway.
Uh, maybe it’s time for us to part ways. (Dismiss)
Hadley:
Right, well. [clears throat]
We’d better get back out there before Luscoe loses a finger or something.
— Conversation with Hadley inThe Stones of Ayor 3

oddly, i adore you
Damien cameover after his stream last night, and I managed to coax him out of his anxiety spiral by talking about times when I’ve blurted out stuff that I probably shouldn’t have said—those examples are aplenty—and the world didn’t end. Still, it took several hours of him folded up on my couch next to me while I playedThe Stones of Ayor 3on my TV—I have the Switch version, which I’ve rarely played buthadto have, because reasons—for him to finally relax.
He spent the night in my too-small bed again, and I wake up this morning with him wrapped around me like he’ll fall off the face of the Earth if he lets go. To be fair, he might fall off the edge of the bed if he does.
